Firstly hes using a tensioner on the back that will act the same as a mech, bb pivots are also really un- efficient pedallers. and as for "psetting Orange's hard work" have a gander at there old 4x bikes which where patriots using 100mm forks.
and dont be a prick all your life, this bike is mint.

2nd thoughts its only got one gear whats the point in a fs bike with one gear and one brake 223's are way to heavy to dirt jumping haha!

i only realised afteri posted the comment as one of my mates dad has a 223 and they look remarkably similar. lol at the coment its as light as a feather, is this feather the same size as a bag of shit 
get a proper bike with proper gears and 2 brakes if you can afford it 
pah idk what im talking about ive only been racing motorbikes since i was 11 whilst youve probably nicked this

i think it's a pretty sick bike, just because you ride motorbikes doesn't mean you automatically know everything about push bikes, if you've ever ridden one of these frames you'd know how light they are and i'd feel pretty comfortable using one of these for DJ, AM, 4X, XC, FR, practically anything because they're so versatile, awesome bike tbh

just because you race DH doesn't mean you know everything bud, as i said, the patriot is a nice do it all short travel bike, not ideal for SS but would make a decent budget slopestyle bike

But even still, surely that's what a DJ SS specific bikes for?
theese are for hucking down big hills!

still a little to aggresive for Dj's though, i reckon.
you should get a hardtail instead. .
none the less, it's a really nice bike .

The patriot was designed for all mountain mainl down with some ups during the day kinda riding not dj's

that i agree with, they're just really strong frames so they're good for short travel freeride/slopestyle on a budget, although the pivot isn't in the ideal place for SS

theyre more expensive than a good ss, and the only way a full sus works ss is if the pivot bearing is around the bottom bracket so the length from the centre of the front chainring to the centre of the rear chainring doesnt change, this means the chain wont go slack or snap over and rear wheel movement.

how old and how heavy is it compared to a good also 2nd hand dj frame -.-" seemed as u cant buy these new
This bike has none of the above. The 100mm fork is also upsetting Orange's hard work of designing the bikes geometery around forks of around 140mm travel. The front tensioner also appears to be redundent as it is not tensioning the chain.
Due to the above reasons i pronounce this bicycle, FAIL
